BAIDER (ENGLISH VERSION)

I haven’t seen Laurent since I said the word ‘ready’ to them. Resttan didn’t get tired of taking care of me because of Laurent’s order.

I was wearing black leggings and white long sleeves. The first Patunay was about to begin. I saw Lauressa smiling as a white bandage was placed on her hand. She rolled her eyes. Only his family was here, no sign of Laurent.

Was it really not authorized to see him? I missed him so bad.

Resttan down his knee while putting a bandage on my hands. “Lauressa is strong. Avoid her hitting your stomach,” Resttan said worriedly. “Laurent loves you.”

I knew that lines came from Laurent, but there was something in me that telling, that words did not just come from Laurent alone. He was saying it, too, from the bottom of his heart or maybe I was just assuming.

I watched Resttan putting on red gloves. “Be careful, Laurent said.” The concern was still there on Resttan’s face. I just stared and wondered if it really came from Laurent or from him? Whatever it was, I nodded. Lauressa and I walked up on the ring, eyes focused on each other. When the bell rang the Patunay began.

Just stick with it, Baby, so mommy can do this.

I was talking to my baby again. Lauressa began to rush. The frown on her face was obvious, so I avoided it. She started to attack me. I prevented every punch she did. When he was about to land his fist on my stomach, I was alarmed. I moved quickly and pushed him into the ring rope.

“I’m sorry,” I said grimly.

She looked at me angrily. “Why can’t you hit me?” The grin grew on her lips, teasing me.

“Eh?” I scratched my head. “I don’t know how to hurt people.” I saw the glow of her eyes. “Especially with Laurent’s family.”

I looked at everyone there and they were shocked by what I said.

Lauressa started attacking me again, but I just avoided her or pushed until she punched me in the face, resulting in me to lay down. I immediately touched my stomach and felt it.

Are you okay, baby?

Worried, I asked in my own stomach. I saw Lauressa’s smile while I was still lying down. She rushed and was about to step on me but I immediately rolled to the right so she couldn’t stomp on me. I hurried to my feet and became alert to his relaunch.

“You’re a coward, you don’t hit me back,” Lauressa said irritably, she wasn’t enjoying the fight.

“I’m not going to punch, kick or hurt anyone,” I repeated to her my reason.

“Then now you’re going to get hurt!”

I was shocked when she ran towards me and hit my face. The pain crawled to my cheek. The purple color was seen immediately.

I saw Resttan stand up, he couldn’t even shout before sitting down again and looking worried. He pressed something on his phone. He was talking to Laurent, updating him on what was happening.

“You’re going to die here,” Lauressa’s sharp look could be seen.

I felt the waves of pain in my stomach.

My baby.

I was almost tired of standing up but I still gained courage.

I have to win!

Lauressa rushed, she kicked me hitting me in the side but when she kicked again I grabbed her foot and pushed her again on the ring rope. Everyone is still serious while watching.

“Pure push! Punch me or kick me!” Lauressa’s annoyed voice could be heard.

I just shook my head. I heard her sigh, the annoyance was obviously written on her face. Fight!”

He rushed at me again and punched me in the stomach, I crossed my arms to protect my child and pushed her again.

I prepared for it for two weeks. I learned to dodge and act fast so that no one would hit me. I didn’t learn how to punch or kick, I will never do that because my mother and father raised me to be a good person. They taught that it is not good to hurt other people no matter how bad they have done to you. I smiled at the thought.

Mother, Father…

When I remembered them, courage crawled all over my body. I looked up at Lauressa and motioned for her to rush. When she rushed, I just avoided her, causing him to fall on the ring rope again.

“Pure avoidance! Don’t you know any strategies in fighting, Coward? How can you survive with the Second and Final Patunay?”

I showed her my purity and sincerity as my lips drew a smile. “I don’t have to use violence to survive. It’s enough for you to love without asking for anything in return even if my life is at stake here. I love your brother and I can’t hurt the people he loves either.” My voice was full of passion.

He stared at me in surprise. “How much do you love him?” Sharp but curiosity was on his face.

“Isn’t it enough that I have accepted the Patunay even though there is no guarantee that I will live after that?” I said sincerely.

I could see her tears welling up. “He’s lucky. He found the love of his life,” she smiled sparingly. There was something in his tone that made him feel jealous too. I looked at her hand as he raised the right hand. I was surprised to see that. I saw Resttan’s wide smile and then pressed the phone again.

What does that mean?

The whole Baider clan nodded and then signaled that the First Patunay was over. I looked at Lauressa in surprise, I saw her smile.

Does that mean my first fight is a success? I won the first battle!

No one spoke and no matter how serious their faces were, I felt like I had really passed the First Patunay.

I was ushered by Resttan, going to the beautiful and large room afterwards. He was just grinning on our way there.

“Resttan, what happened?” I wondered as I questioned him.

He shrugged. He probably wouldn’t say because there might be some other condition there.

“Take a break. Laurent said, he’s very happy,”

Tears welled up in my eyes, it was as if I saw Laurent in him that he himself was saying that.

He sighed before speaking again. “It’s embarrassing to do but he said to kiss you on the forehead and say I love you ugh!” He averted his gaze. “He’s so corny! Maybe after the Patunay I’m heartbroken because of what that mad man is doing,” he laughed out loud.

“He’s sweet.” My tears are already flowing.

Laurent…

I can really see Laurent in what he does. I know he’s very jealous but with his great love even though he was jealous. He swallowed the pain. He could only make Resttan do the thing he can’t do now.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

I closed my eyes. “Do what he told you to do.”

I want to feel him, hug and kiss him now but I can’t because I and my family will just die. It was so cruel that we could not see each other at this time. That was even more cruel than what had happened before. Not seeing him was hell.

Suddenly, Resttan kissed my forehead.

I can feel that he is Laurent. That’s him!

I wouldn’t have thought he was Resttan, I needed to feel that he was Laurent, the man who loves me and the father of my son.

I heard Resttan sighed. “I hate doing intimate things,” he said, annoyed, so I opened my eyes. “Why is he ordering me? It’s annoying. What I’m doing makes me feel like I’m the father of your child.”

I just laughed at his scolding. He was very angry with what Laurent was asking him to do. There was something that touched my heart and made me happy because even though Laurent was not around, he was still doing what he was supposed to do through Resttan. I feel like even though Resttan is against him, he will still take care of me. I salute him for loving his cousin the most.

I smiled at him. “Thank you, please tell Laurent how much I love him.”

“He loves you, too.”
